I like your technique! Do you have any advice on how to get rid of the oil that pools in makeup packaged in tubes? I have an eyeshadow primer, for example, that has separated and whenever I go to use it, only an oily substance comes out. I’ve tried to gently mix it by massaging the tube, but it doesn’t seem to work. .

Hi there! I am so sorry you are having the issue. To be honest, I really don’t have any tricks of my own for makeup packages in tubes. Perhaps you may want to slowly squeeze out the oily part. I am so sorry I can’t be of much help.
